Toronto Raptors might be the best NBA team most Americans have barely heard of…

–

Police raided FSU QB Deondre Francois’s Tallahassee apartment on a tip he was selling pot, but they found less than an ounce of marijuana. Wonder how long until Francois transfers to Colorado or Washington?

–

Anthony Rizzo says the baseball season is too long. Jeez, get a team in the postseason for a few years and they turn into snowflakes. @cubs

–

Maybe if Mueller really wants to keep his job he can tell Trump that on the day he is fired an associate will release the pee tape.

–

C’mon Nikki Haley, come over to anti-Trump dark side. We have cookies. And can’t wait to read your resignation letter ending “Bless your heart.”

–

Starbucks is going to close its 8,000 US company-owned stores for one afternoon to education employees about racial bias. So now will an entirely new group #BoycottStarbucks?

–

So I know #bustohell jokes are inappropriate now but if I die in a freak airline accident I hereby give all my friends & family permission to make #airplanetohell joke. #Southwest

–

RIP Barbara Bush. After she stopped medical intervention she was still sipping bourbon. We all should go out with such style.

A fun Barbara Bush story back when Jenna Bush was getting into relatively mild but regular trouble.   Jenna in an interview “I’m known around the family as Grandma’s revenge on George.”

Trump started out this am ranting about Stormy Elliott.  At least @realDonaldTrump didn’t tweet this morning that #BarbaraBush“wouldn’t have been his first choice?

–

Trump also tweeting about the advantages of online retailers not collecting sales tax.  The Trump Store only collects sales tax from buyers in two states.

–

We are finally within two MONTHS of a NBA finals potential game seven, scheduled for Jun 17, 2018.  And they say the baseball season is too long.

–

So will Cooperstown ask for the broken handle of Bryce Harper’s bat?

(for those who didn’t see, he hit a ball, broke his bat, and it went for a 400 plus foot home run.)

–

Washington Post profiled some unhappy mostly rural Texas voters who are unhappy with Gregg Popovich’s political outspokenness and attacks on Trump. They say some of them can no longer be Spurs fans. Now, where’s the article on all the more liberal fans who have been listening to Pop and are BIGGER, or even first time Spurs fans.

–

Bad enough that a Canadian team hasn’t won the Stanley Cup in forever.  But now one of the league’s best team’s is an expansion team in…. Las Vegas. #insulttoinjury

–

A’s are giving away free tickets to Tuesday’s game. How bad will it get before they offer to PAY fans to show up?

–

Manager of Philadelphia Starbucks who called cops on black men reported “no longer works” at location. Have they accepted a job at Fox News cafeteria?

–

So now Sean Hannity turns out to be a Michael Cohen client…. We really are going to have a nationwide popcorn shortage.

–

So yeah, don’t we all expect attorney client privilege from someone who isn’t our lawyer? #SeanHannity

–

So now it’s Nikki Haley who’s been thrown under the Trump bus with @realDonaldTrump contradicting her sanctions announcement yesterday. Damn, I didn’t have her in Resignation Bingo.

–

If you’re still supporting Trump and Hannity right now presume you’ll be okay if a Democratic President and Rachel @maddow behave the same way in future?

If someone came to a major studio with a movie script that paralleled events in @realDonaldTrump administration they’d have been told to come back with something more realistic.

Bartolo Colon, 44, took a perfect game into the 8th inning Sunday against the Houston Astros.   Like Tom Brady, it must be that hard-core fitness regime that keeps him ageless?

–

Of course, many might think that watching Colon will dispel the rumor of baseball players being true athletes once and for all.

So the Spurs got blown out in game 1 because they are missing their superstar.  What was Cavs excuse?

–

Wonder if Cavs coach  Tyronn Lue will have a recurrence of whatever illness caused him to step away from the team in March?

23 1/2 inches of snow in Green Bay, Wisconsin, 2nd-heaviest snowstorm of all time, 27 inches of rain in 24 hours in Kauai. But no, we don’t have climate change….

–

Whatever you think of the Bush presidents, they both married up. Wishing the best for Barbara Bush.

It’s not an “either-or” question – America doesn’t have to respect Trump OR Comey.

–

No response from yet @realDonaldTrump on #Comeyinterview So staff must have done a better job than usual of hiding his phone.

–

So did Trump use #MissionAccomplished as a dig at W? Or is he really so clueless he has no idea what Americans now think that means?

–

Since Trump may be at Mar-A-Lago all week is there any way someone can give America a break by cutting the TV cable?

–

Trump’s campaign committee reportedly spent $3.9 million that Trump’s committee spent in the first quarter of 2018,  and more than $834,000  of that went to eight law firms and the Trump Corp. for legal fees,  according to the FEC.

Well, at least it’s “jobs! jobs! jobs!” for lawyers.

–

Remember when weirdest story involving a former FBI director was J. Edgar Hoover’s rumored cross-dressing?

‘Chicago WhiteSox & Minnesota Twins canceled last 3 games of 4 game series over a spring snowstorm. Somewhere the ghost of the Metrodome is laughing.

At least Trump doesn’t know or care enough about baseball to insult our intelligence by pretending he honors #JackieRobinsonDay

–

Uf misery loves company then this 2018 season SF Giants and Dodgers may become BFFs indeed.

New Eagles CB Daryl Worley reportedly found passed out behind the wheel in a car blocking South Philadelphia highway. So just wondering, when will NFL contracts start banning risky behavior like driving?

–

Kelly Kraft missed the cut at RBC Heritage by a stroke after a tee-shot hit a bird and landed in water, Kraft’s response later “I got screwed.” HE got screwed? What about the bird?

–

200 million eggs recalled over salmonella fears with 22 illnesses at least reported so far. But hey, who needs pesky regulations?

–

Credit where credit is due. Trump has been a disaster in most ways for the country. But he’s revitalized SNL.

–

With all the stupid things @readdonaldTrump has ever tweeted, wouldn’t you think he’d have at least learned not to use #MissionAccomplished.

–

Just wondering what Robert Mueller will consider #MissionAccomplished?

–

Nikki Haley says US remains “locked and loaded” to strike Syria again in response to new chemical attacks. She misspoke – Let me correct – “in response to any new bombshell from Mueller investigation.”

–

Trump tweeting ” Syrian raid was so perfectly carried out, with such precision,…& attacking “Fake News Media” at same time White House releases alleged Syria situation room picture w/ VP Pence who wasn’t even on same continent. Once again, lies, damn lies, and Trumpisms

(and hey, when they tweeted out a years’ old picture of Mike Pence at a Colts game, ostensibly to show him before he walked out of another game over an anthem protest…. well we should have know… no lie too petty.)

–

This live-action Wag the Dog sequel really sucks.

“The 49ers organization is aware of today’s disturbing charges regarding Reuben Foster. Reuben is aware his place in our organization is under great scrutiny and will depend on what is learned through the legal process.”

–

SF 49ers LB Reuben Foster just charged w/ felony domestic violence Thursday after alleged attack on girlfriend in Feb. And 29 other teams who passed on the star LB in NFL draft have to be feeling pretty good about that decision.

–

As the Trump housekeeper rumors hit the 24 hour news cycle I remember one of my favorite “Tonight Show” episodes with Johnny Carson and Joan Rivers. They were arguing over whether men or women were better. After a bit of back and forth, Joan said, “Johnny, a woman always knows EXACTLY how many children she has in the world”
Johnny started to respond, stopped, thought about it for a second, and said “You win.”.

Maybe it’s just me, but thinking that for 49ers fans giving Richard Sherman a pass on some past behavior is a no-brainer compared at this point to defending Reuben Foster.

–

I really miss days when troubled relationship between a Kardashian and an NBA player would have been the biggest social media concern of the week

–

New study found “night owls” — people who prefer to stay up later — had a 10% higher mortality rate than early birds. Well of course, probably stress-related illnesses caused by putting up with morning people.

–

Amazed how conservatives who talk about “gay lifestyle” and “perversion” seem to have no problem with heterosexuals who cheat on their (plural) wives. #Pompeo

Mitch McConnell is married to Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. So would they have to retire together to use the “spend time with family” excuse?

–

If Donald  Trump could make millions on Trump-branded marijuana he’d probably change his mind on legalization too. #JohnBoehner

It’s not that a doorman got $30,000 and a porn star got $130,000. I want to know who got the REAL big $$$ from Donald Trump.

–

Maybe Trump is afraid we’ll find out about an illegitimate daughter because he tried to date her?

=

–

Forget shooting someone on 5th Avenue. Beginning to think if @realDonaldTrump told his fans “Sorry suckers, it was never about MAGA it’s just about making me richer,” they’d respond “Isn’t he wonderful being so honest.”

If anyone wanted their children to really work on serious math skills they could have just had them work to figure out potential playoff seedings before tonight’s NBA final regular season, or should I say, preseason, games.

–

If the Warriors win it all will they be first NBA champions to have lost their final regular season game by 40 points.

Last time Timberwolves were in NBA playoffs, fans couldn’t even take to social media to celebrate. (Facebook just started Feb 2004, opened to non-students in 2006. Twitter started in 2006)

–

Happy #NationalPetDay. Worth a reminder that @realDonaldTrump is first President in modern memory without a pet. Because he has enough GOP lapdogs & no cat would put up with him?

–

Ok, I get that good people can disagree on issues. But Trump judicial nominee Wendy Vitter just refused to say if she agreed w/ Brown v. Board of Education.#WTF? Many “fine” people….

–

If there are any rational Republicans left trying to be the voice of reason that Trump will listen to perhaps they could quickly get a gig on “Fox and Friends?”

Did rookie Tyler Beede in his first start not get the SF Giants memo? – “Don’t pitch to Goldschmidt.”

Maybe  SFGiants put up a big sign next to the warm-up pitching mound? “WHEN IT MATTERS, NEVER PITCH TO GOLDSCHMIDT. EVER.”

–

They could create a really tough SAT math question on trying to figure out potential NBA playoff seedings with ONE game left in the regular season.

–

Trump today honored Alabama national champions college football team.  Donaldhad attended game but  after he left at halftime Crimson Tide came back from 13-0 deficit. Who said @POTUS never accomplished anything

–

EPA apparently can’t come up with any ACTUAL death threats against Scott Pruitt. But you know, grizzly bears….

–

Air Canada has now announced FIVE different fare types for flights within North America, ranging from non-changeable with no seat assignments to fully flexible. And of course all passengers will carefully read the differences so there will be no problems at the airport.

–

Damn, I missed Tom Bossert in Trump resignation bingo.

–

I think almost worse than impeachment for @RealDonaldTrump will if be Robert Mueller is named ‘Time Man of the Year.”

–

How much would we love to see President “Witch Hunt” asked if he could describe what actually happened in Salem?

Apparently @realDonaldTrump is unclear on the subject of breaking into an office. FBI used a search warrent. Watergate was a break-in.

–

Rand Paul says FBI raid on Michael Cohen office was “a great overstep” in Mueller investigation. Uh, doesn’t he want to see what they found before he says that?

From TC on  Lindsey Buckingham parting ways with Fleetwood Mac. “They told him He Could Go His Own Way!

Cubs home opener snowed out. Only thing colder are SF Giants’ bats.

Six of the nine games SFGiants have played they have scored 1 or 0 runs. Clearly they miss Madbum at the plate.

Not only do the Giants need to start hitting to stay competitive in the National League’s Western division, they also need to make some effort to claim at their Giants Dugout store that they are selling “game-used bats.”

–

That moment when you have to outscore the Sacramento Kings by 19 in 4th quarter at home to clinch playoff spot. On brighter note Pop might be so frustrated he decides to run for President?

–

Packers WR Trevor Davis was arrested when he checked in at LAX & in response to usual questions, asked his companion if “she remembered to pack the explosives.” You almost hope he’s had a concussion. #cantfixstupid

–

GB wide receiver Trevor Brown, arrested for joking about having a bomb at LAX, is a Cal grad. And they wonder why Stanford makes Weenie jokes?

–

Meanwhile, Lindsey Buckingham has parted ways with Fleetwood Mac. Having a 1980’s flashback.

Imagine all you idealistic young law students, you too can grow up to spend $130,000 of your own money on a porn star who accuses your client, and then have your office raided by FBI….

–

So maybe FBI was raiding Michael Cohen’s office looking for the covfefe?

–

Trump may be learning the hard way – don’t f*ck with a professional who screws other people for a living. #StormyDaniels

–

Trump “Many people have said ‘you should fire’ Mueller.” Translation of “Many people” – “Putin plus all the voices in his head.”

–

If Trump does fire Mueller who will be the first GOP member of Congress to call for “thoughts and prayers?

–

If a man died & 6 NYFD firefighters were injured at a Clinton owned building, GOP would be saying it was as bad as Chappaquddick.

–

Meanwhile Trump will bomb Syria to smithereens before he does something drastic like allow some Syrian refugees into USA.

Is there ANY Republican not retiring who is willing to say firing Mueller is a Red Line? Or is it really $$$$ over all? Asking for a country.

Once again, if Mueller is on a Witch Hunt and there is nothing in Cohen’s records that implicates Trump then POTUS should be thrilled for opportunity for vindication…

Watching The Masters have to ask – has a ball ever listened when spectators scream “Get in the hole?”

As some wonder how Americans could have possibly voted Donald Trump into office, useful to remember, last Monday Tiger Woods was betting line favorite to win The Masters.

–

All Nike golfers had to wear pink today. So has Patrick Reed made pink the new red?

–

Apparently fans were rooting today for Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy over Reed. Now, while I’m not a big golf fan, have read that Patrick had has some potential character issues in the past.  Fair enough. But have to wonder, seriously, how those fans would have reacted if he looked more like someone who belonged at a fancy country club.

–

And didn’t everyone have the New York Mets as the last 1 loss team in the NL?

–

And didn’t we all have Patrick Reed leading #theMasters

–

But hey, good news for CBS and ESPN, Tiger Woods is still playing. For those who get up early on Sunday morning.

Yeah Andrew McCutchen can stay. Welcome to  SF Giants  history.  #BeatLA

–

So is the Warriors strategy to save ALL their remaining wins this year for NBA playoffs?

–

Phillies 20, Marlins 1. Maybe to really speed up some games MLB doesn’t need a pitch clock, it needs a mercy rule.

–

Terrible tragedy in Canada with at least 14 dead in junior hockey team bus crash. Absolute crickets from Trump for hours.  Finally a tweet saying he had called Justin Trudeau.    (Did someone from Fox call Trump to tell him to do it?)

–

Millions of us in US apologize for our President

–

Sad that a man has died in Trump Tower fire. But I can’t be the only one who immediately thinks “Did he piss off any Russians lately?”

–

While the thought of pissing off Russians isn’t REALLY a joke. It’s probably wrong to joke about a man dying in Trump Tower. But neither should @POTUS be bragging about his “well-built building” – with no sprinklers.

–

So do all Trump buildings not have sprinklers in them? Asking for a number of suddenly worried residents & hotel guest.

–

Spare me any outrage about jokes over Trump Tower fire, please. When Hillary & Bill Clinton’s house caught fire “Some political pundits took to Twitter to joke that the fire must have erupted because the Clintons were burning books or destroying evidence of wrongdoing.

–

If this keeps up, Scott Pruitt will indeed be fired, not for corruption, but because he is taking headlines away from @realDonaldTrump

–

Trump talks about death threats to Scott Pruitt. Uh, liberals in general don’t advocate killing their political enemies. He must have been thinking of Ted Nugent.

–

Awful that someone drove into a crowd in Muenster.   Motive unknown.  But we already know why – if he was white he was mentally ill. If Muslim, he was a terrorist.

Puerto Rico, still not recovered from hurricane, is part of USA. Which means illegal immigrants who make it to the island can fly to US mainland w/o border security. Maybe if we spread this around enough it will scare Trump into sending troops there.

Or at least ESPN’s long national nightmare.

Tiger Woods has, barely, made the cut at the Masters.

–

Although these days it’s also almost hard to believe that the NBA pre-season is almost over.

–

So Adam Jones gets called out on a pitch with bases loaded in 14th inning that was way off the plate. Alvarez hits a grand slam on very next pitch. Mean bitch Karma cracking a cold one. #Orioles #Yankees

–

Anyone but me have no idea who #ConorMcGregor was. And thinking I haven’t missed much.

–

Wonder if it’s occurred to USA enemies that they could completely paralyze the White House just by knocking Fox and Friends off the air?

–

Jobs report said only 103,000 new jobs added in March. And half of those were due to firings/resignations in Trump’s White House.

–

As weather service predicts a bad hurricane season have to wonder, if a big one hits Texas will that be enough to recall National Guard from the border?

–

Blake Farenthold just resigned from Congress. Almost certainly means one thing… there are more women.

–

Rudy Giuliani’s 2nd wife found out his intentions to end marriage via a press conference. Would have been great karma if 3rd wife Judith Nathan told him she was leaving by text?

–

Dow down 700, jobs report half of what was expected. Nine West declaring bankruptcy. Where’s the Trump tweet taking credit?

–

I remember a liberal friend saying “I hate Reagan, but he could speak at my funeral anytime.” Can anyone imagine @realDonaldTrump speaking at a funeral? He’d quickly blame Dems & immigrants for the death, then praise himself for the rest of the service.

–

This was a lot funnier from Nathan Lane as Albert in “Cage Aux Folles” #KevinWilliamson

“The doctors are only doing their jobs. If you’re going to kill someone, better to kill the mothers. That will stop them.
Oh, I know what you’re going to say. “If you kill the mother, the fetus dies, too.” But the fetus is going to be aborted anyway, so why not let it go down with the ship?”

But didn’t everyone have the SFGiants up 3 to 0 after 1 inning against Felix Hernandez?

And then knocking Hernandez out of the game with 8 runs in the 6th.

–

SFGiants scored ten runs tonight  in a game started by future Hall-of-Famer Felix Hernandez.  Even the eight they scored against him was more than they have in all five previous games this season.#baseballisafunnygame

–

Since we all know how much Trump hates being upstaged, can only imagine what he’ll do if Tiger Woods has a good first day at the Masters.

–

Police believe YouTube shooter had only recently bought the 9mm handgun she used. California has reasonably tight gun laws, imagine if she could have gotten an AR-15.

–

If MLK , or somewhat like him, were alive today, wonder what nasty nickname @RealDonaldTrump would use for him on Twitter?

If Jeff Bezos were a Trump supporter, @realDonaldTrump would be touting Amazon as an American success story. And would have nominated Bezos to his Cabinet.

–

As Trump attacks immigrants, important to remember he had to hire temporary foreigner workers because he couldn’t find enough Americans to do the work at Mar-A-Lago. Sort of the same problem he’s had looking for wives.

–

Homeland Security Sec. Kirstjen Nielsen says Trump will “soon” sign order deploying National Guard troops to United States’ southern border. Hmm, maybe on May 4? Anniversary of Kent State.

–

Two GOP members of Congress have called for EPA Sec. Pruitt to be dismissed. So apparently most greed and corruption is fine, but a $50 room in DC is beyond the pale.

Trump says mission in Syria is “coming to a rapid end.” But won’t say when troops will leave. Probably about the time he releases his tax returns.

–

Rudy Giuliani is heading for his 3rd divorce. Hope this doesn’t get in the way of his attacking Hillary Clinton over her marriage.

–

Of course it’s a free country, but anyone but me have just a bit of a problem listening to Melissa Ethridge shilling for Applebee’s? #Cometomywindow?#WTF?

After less than a week in MLB,  Pittsburgh is the last undefeated team.  As we all expected.

Giancarlo Stanton was booed after 5 K’s in his Big Apple debut for Yankees. At least he’ll get more understanding from that warm fuzzy New York media.

–

Madison Bumgarner says #SFGiants estimate on his return might be “a little conservative.” Which is potentially great news. The team needs his bat.

–

Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia bought out entire Four Seasons Hotel in Palo Alto for a week. Hope what he paid includes some compensation money for bartenders.

–

Despite all the Twitter jokes, of COURSE Trump knows where Baltics are. They are on the board right next to Mediterraneans.

–

Official TrumpStore, which sells Trump organization branded items and DonaldJTrump store, which sells political merchandise, BOTH use USPS for shipping. But I am sure they only pay the highest rates….

–

Trump (falsely) tweeting that Amazon shipping costs with USPS should not be bourne (sic) by the American taxpayer. Beginning to see how this man thought Betsy Devos was qualified to lead education.

–

If Americans get angry when the price of food or gas goes up a few cents, imagine how if they’d feel if Amazon suddenly stopped Amazon Prime?

–

Trump attacking Amazon in part he says because they are hurting mom-and-pop retailers. As opposed to his beloved donor Walmart?

–

White House is now strongly backing EPA head Scott Pruitt. I wonder who Trump lets stay at his DC hotel for $50 a night?

–

Getting really tired  of resetting the US mass shooting clock. #YouTube

–

Who knows for sure, but the father of Nasim Aghdam, alleged YouTube shooter who allegedly fatally 3 other people then shot herself, reportedly “hated” the company.

–

Conservative men – “if only she were armed” No, wait….

–
Nasim was armed with a handgun.  Imagine if California had the same gun laws as states like Texas, then she could have settled her imagined scores with an AR-15.

–

Now it’s Cheatin’ Obama?!! But somehow I’ve missed the derisive nickname Trump has for Putin?

–

Trump reportedly to meet with Peter Thiel at White House dinner in hopes of learning how to attack Amazon, Facebook, Apple and Google. Ladies and gentlemen, your President of the United State

–

Ok, who had one of the last two undefeated teams in MLB for 2018 being the Pittsburgh Pirates?

So how did Villanova lose 4 games this year?   #NCAAChampionship

–

No disrespect for Sister Jean and Loyola-Chicago, but Donte DiVicenzo is a Catholic guy playing for a Catholic school. #EvenGodLovesAHotHand

–

Police in Philadelphia greased utility poles to prevent fans climbing them in anticipation of  Villanova winning  #MarchMadness championship. I’m so old I remember when the biggest sports hooligans were European soccer fans.

–

Twins players were upset when Orioles catcher Chance Sisco bunted against the shift for a hit in the 9th when Minnesota was leading 7-0. Uh, if they thought game was over, then why did the Twins shift?

–

Donald Trump is so enamored of Sinclair Broadcasting; it’s like he’s cheating on “Fox and Friends.”

–

So how long until Sinclair news anchors start having to blink out messages in Morse Code?

–

In Texas, a black woman was sentenced to 5 years in prison for mistakenly voting when she was on probation. Meanwhile, Ethan Couch serves 720 days in jail for violating HIS probation for killing four people while driving drunk.  #WTF?

–

Too soon to start a pool on the date of Couch’s next arrest?  #Affluenza

–

–

Amazing, Trump is praising leaders who won sham elections in Russia and , Egypt. And attacking the lawfully-elected-in-a-landslide Governor of California.

–

Mike Lindell, CEO of My Pillow says he has no plans to stop advertising on Fox News and Laura Ingraham show. Not sure if @KNBR will run those ads again, but just guessing when most @SFGiants fans hear this Mike might not want to bother.

–

FoxNews supporting Laura Ingraham “We cannot and will not allow voices to be censored by agenda-driven intimidation efforts.” Unless those voices are black or teenagers – then they should just shut up and dribble or go to class.

–

Again, a reminder, Trump created the DACA crisis, and has refused every Democratic and bipartisan deal to fix it. The term, ladies and gentlemen, is “gaslighting.”

–

On a positive note, not only are Parkland kids articulate and engaged, they will outlive all the GOP trolls bashing them. #MarchForOurLives

–

So after 2017 many might not have been surprised SF Giants scored 2 runs in 4 games in LA against Dodgers.   That they WON two of those games on the other hand…

–

Looks like God may have decided to abandon Sister Jean in favor of Notre Dame women’s team. #MarchMadness

–

All things being equal I think I want to be rooting for the women’s basketball team with a woman coach.

–

Really glad for the Fighting Irish’s underdog Final Four victory.  On the other hand, I think I have fulfilled my lifetime quota of rooting for Notre Dame.

–

Wolverines coach John Beilein believes school will officially honor the complete Fab Five sometime in future. And then will Michigan vacate the honor?

–

David Hogg today got an Twitter apology from… Frank Stallone. And millions of Americans are going “who?”

Steven Bochco has passed away. RIP. And “be careful out there.”

–

So Melania has separate bedroom, plus Secret Service has to make it lot harder to meet porn stars & Playboy bunnies. Maybe that explains the late night cranky Trump tweets.

–

Uh, think anyone at the White House will dare tell @realDonaldTrump that new potential immigrants have nothing to do with DACA?

–

Jesus – “Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’ @realDonaldTrump – “NO MORE DACA DEAL.”   and yeah “Happy Easter!”

Democrats right now – Pro-DACA, pro-education, pro-environment, pro-healthcare, pro-gun control, pro-higher minimum wage.
GOP right now – pro “anything-Trump-sees-on-Fox-and Friends.”

That moment when you realize,  whoever wins, your most successful March Madness effort is going to be a 1:00am Cat Bracket. #Villanova   #Wildcats

Congrats to Houston Rockets for securing #1 seed & home-field advantage throughout playoffs. If they want to stay out all night celebrating before tomorrow’s game w/ San Antonio, Spurs will no doubt chip in for bar bill.

I guess God wanted Sister Jean to be able to focus on Easter. #marchmadness

–

Ready for someone on #SFGiants besides Joe Panik to get an RBI.

–

So if Amazon really WERE evading taxes , by Trump standards wouldn’t that make them “really smart?”

–

So on the holiest weekend in the Christian calendar, @realDonaldTrump is celebrating by going after Amazon and Jerry Brown. #JesusWept

–

Well, we all know why Trump really attacked Jerry Brown – He’s jealous of the California governor’s budget surplus, approval ratings, and hand size.

$521 million Mega Millions winning ticket sold in New Jersey last night. Assume winner’s first plan with all that money – get out of New Jersey.

–

My generation sadly misses the Sears Roebuck Christmas catalog. Now millennials will have the experience of missing Toys R Us.

–

Ted Nugent just said the Parkland survivors have “no soul.” Many fine people….

My friend Ezra asked if this meant Nugent was “hollow inside.”  Uh, hollower than a Dollar Store Easter Chocolate bunny…

Until tonight, no MLB team had won back-to-back 1-0 games w/ same player hitting home run in each. Ever. But hey, we all knew if it would happen it would be the SF Giants’ Joe Panik against Dodgers.

#GroundhogDay. Panik for only HR of the game, Strickland for the save. Just like we all expected.   As we expected Panik to be on pace for 162 home runs.

–

Mickey Lolich was in a wheelchair as Detroit #Tigers honored him on 50th anniversary of 1968 World Series. And even so Lolich probably would have pitched better today than Tigers’ bullpen.

–

Kevin Durant says he’s getting additional T’s & ejections due to wanting to repeat last year “What we did as a team was special & and I want to experience that again.”

So if the Warriors were .500 this year KD would be acting like Tim Duncan?

–

Somehow I have missed all these conservatives who now love Roseanne explaining how that crotch grab during national anthem was just her free speech.

–

Whatever you think of David Hogg, he has a lot more cojones than any Republican in Congress.

Let’s be real here, advertisers not leaving Laura Ingraham show because they’re liberal or snowflakes. They’re leaving because they think staying will cost them $$$, meaning they think most Americans support David Hogg.

–

EPA Head Scott Pruitt reportedly rented room on Capitol Hill from a health care lobbyist who is married to an energy lobbyist- for $50 a night! But wait – he didn’t stay at Trump hotel? Move him up in Trump firing bingo!

Teachers in 4 states are striking or threatening to strike for better wages and benefits. Does the GOP still want them to be armed?

I’m old enough to remember when not wanting to be shot at school wasn’t considered to be a political opinion.

–

As much as I hate to see Trump spend so much time on the golf course, it might keep him from doing even more dangerous things.

–

Trump has declared April “sexual assault awareness” month So his latest campaign is to put @TheOnion out of business?

–

Laura Ingraham has announced she is taking a “vacation.” Well, the job of White House Communications Director is open.

From Marc Ragovin  “Claiming executive overreach, Ryan Zinke has announced that he plans to reduce the dimensions of Yankee Stadium’s Monument Park by 71%”
